I'd love to go, I might stop by, I'll be @ Hunters Ed that morning @ Dix.. the range, not the store Stephanie..

They did, all bullets MUST impact the center of the burm, not the top, not the bottom, not the floor, not the rental house, etc.. :-) They gave plans for the target holders during the meeting with high requirements for Standing, Sitting and Prone.. looks like i can make one holder and have longer/shorter legs..

Ha, their website says "CALL US TOLL-FREE: 732-905-4499". as long as your in NJ I guess it would be toll free :-) Might need to stop by and "demand" they become a forum vendor..

Thanks for the clarification, it seemed a bit confusing when they went over it during the meeting, I'm not sure any of the "new" members that night really understood the concept. I do like the safety aspect that they push, shooting @ Dix and some other places, it's like a free for all, muzzles sweeping all over the place, this place seems legit and won't tolerate any thing like that, huge concern on ricochets, at dix, they whiz past you all the time..or at least it sounds like it.... Any other Tips, or info you care to share would be great.. I hate being the FNG :-) I'm going to meet up with JimmyAGR next Sat, so that will help as well..

Sweet, love the barrel on that..

Cool, i have 7 others coming with me, all my guys from the shop. I think we are up to like 45 so far.. should be fun..

11/6? I can do that...

I can tell you what i was told last night, and by a 10+ year member who I know.. and maybe some longer term members can answer... Weekends are busy, but not terrible, first one on a range is the RO, so they basically call the shots as far as cease fires etc on the outdoor ranges, Pit's, you are on your own, occasionally someone else will ask to join, your call.. Week days are pretty much dead, so your not likely to encounter many others, except for events and such... Indoor handgun and .22 RF range is 24hrs, separate lanes, key fob access, closed Wend nights for new member meetings and Saturday nights from 7-9pm for cleaning

Wait, you actually had "HOPE" for this thread, with us? Really? come on now...

Here's some Tubby Guns for ya Steph...

baha, I've seen this picture a million times, but I have never noticed the Bad a** Playstation Rock Band Guitars.. bahahahaha

Thanks, I was kind of surprised by the number of people joining last night.. If you wouldn't mind, I'd like to meet up with you one time, just to get the lay of the land.. We basically saw the outdoor & indoor pistol range last night, and not much else..

The Capital Contribution fee is basically a fee new members have to pay to join the club. This fee is set to ensure all member pay the same amount. With all the costs, fee's, maintenance and improvements, it wouldn't be fair to the existing members that have been there forever (basically the ones that would have "paid" for all the improvements, work etc..) to have a new member join for 200 bucks and be able to enjoy the same club as those that have been there for many years.. everyone has the same "buy in" When you join, the Dues are based on when you join, so if you join now, your yearly dues are only like 44 bucks, so if you paid everything in full it would be 444.00, then 214 (200 + tax) for next year. You do have the option of only paying $200 for the Cap Cont fee, then quarterly payments until the 400 is met.. So if you went last night, you can have paid, 444 (cap fee, + remaining balance of the this year) or 244 (1/2 cap fee, + remaining balance of this year) the other 200 would be billed quarterly until paid off.. For Military, if you have Activation or Deployment for more than 9 months, during the period of activation/deployment and for 90 days after deactivation, all dues and payments are waived.. Any outstanding initiation fee (balance of Cap Cont) would resume 6 months after deactivation, but like I said, dues begin after 90s of return.. You still maintain FULL Membership status during your activation/deployment time..

I thought the same, however, we had 19 people join last night (I can say we now, since I am now a member ) anyway, by the time you get thru the paperwork, shooting, range & club rules, watch a nice safety video, you won't be out of there until after 9.. Oh, and you are required to go to next weeks (or the following week after you join) to receive your ID badge and Key fob, but that meeting starts @ 7:30, technically 8, but they suggest getting there early to get your stuff.. so IF you plan on joining, be sure to leave 2 Wednesdays in a row free..

My guess on the NRA deal would be insurance, I beleive, that if a Club or Range has only NRA memberships it reduces the Insurance Premiums.. The website says the meeting is @ 6:30

Whats your hesitation on joining the NRA if you don't mind me asking.. just curious.. I know they do **** for NJ, but it's hard to blame them.

Sounds like this

Thinking of heading to the new member meeting tonight to join Central Jersey.. just wondering if anyone else was planning on heading over?

+1 I've got several thousand rounds thru my Kimber 1911, never had one hiccup, not one FTF, or FTE, nothing.. shot all kinds of ammo thru it.. now, I'm not doing competitions with it, but it's been flawless.

Hey Guys.. I'm signed up for the Hunters Ed course @ Dix on 11/7. Just curious to see if anyone else was going.. this the Shotgun/Muzzle loader one.. I took the online class @ HunterExam.com and passed, it was super easy... anyway, let me know if your gonna be there..

Buy Me! Only 14 bucks!

average, large pistol was 31 or 32 bucks, 231 powder was like 31.. they gave a small discount for cash..

Certainly not a bad idea to put forth the time/effort into obtaining one tho...

Yeah, no need to buy any Vowels... See as time went on the "old school" slowly names disappeared..then Tom, Frank, Peter, Martin...

Yeah there's some serious history there... Here's the Past President list, well most of what my drunk hands could hold steady for..
